Hello,
I just wanted to voice my opinion of the film as an Athiest.
I grew up in a strongly Christian home,but lost faith at the age of 11 after the death of my mother.
However,I have never lost my faith in the teachings of Jesus,the man.
His words always gave me stregnth in times of loss and doubt.
Unfortunately,Science has led to a dis-belief in an omnipotent god over the years...I do believe that there is more to life than what science can show us at this time,but I feel that I need more than what the bible tells us.
Organized religion is also a factor;the teachings of Jesus tell us that faith is not about giving money to an organization.
I find it hard to find faith in a church in which the minister drives a brand new Cadillac and has the nerve to ask me for money.
Anyhow...sorry for the rant.
Back to the film;
I really felt a connection with Jesus,the human,after watching the movie...even dusted off my bible and read for a few hours.
Now,being a father,I felt for the first time in almost 2 decades what Jesus was offering-true,unconditional love.
I hope to find faith again,someday...
Thank you for reading,
Charles |
